She just had to open her big mouth. At least her public service punishment was something she could do in ten seconds flat. Princess Twilight wasn’t that cruel. So she had to bust a few clouds and endure a few snickers from Cloudkicker about how her rainbow roots were starting to show. It was worth it to top Pinkie’s prank. Putting ink and horse shoe polish into her mane dye was pretty sneaky.
She managed to one up Pinkie, help Applejack, and scare the wits out of everypony else. All things considered, it was a good day.
“Yeah.”
Back To Work
“Sorry about what I did to your mane, Dashie.”
“Nah, it’s cool. Besides, that black and white Rainboom was wicked awesome! I hope somepony took a picture!”
“You can do it again and I can take a picture!”
“Eh... I don’t want to dye my mane again for a long time.”
….
….
“So... I guess it’s back to work, huh?”
“Well, yeah.”
“Oh...”
“But that doesn’t mean it can’t wait.”
“Oh! We going on a date?!”
“Depends. Who’s paying?”
“Dashie!”
“Don’t pout! Okay, fine... I’ll pay.”
“Yay!”
“You know my weaknesses after all.”
Reservation For Two
Dash stared at the menu and tried not to make a scene. She never knew Pinkie had such refined taste. Of course, it only seemed to show itself when Dash was paying, but it was worth the price of admission to see that smile (as well as what usually came afterwards).
That and the exotic chocolates and imported flowers were enough to make even Rarity swoon. After she overcame the initial shock that the likes of Pinkie and Dash enjoyed such things, of course. Who was she to judge anyway?
Dash had to admit, it was nice not being bothered.
Whatever Happened To The Rainboom?
The title of the article made it sound like Dash was dead. Everypony knew by now what happened to the Rainboom. It got a makeover by way of Pinkie and Daring Do. Of course, seeing the hastily scribbled notes about Armageddon that Twilight had initially composed before getting wise to what was happening were priceless.
She also thought it hilarious that no pony seemed to know it was her by looking at her mark. Having her mane dyed only pointed out the fact that cutie marks don’t mean anything when it comes to being famous.
Just like Daring Do.
